Are there any? I'm looking for wet food that's basically just meat + the necessary supplements, no plant ingredients and no carrageenan or guar gum, xanthan gum, locust bean gum etc.

There are several threads about carrageenan; it's a topic of increasing interest. Here is one and here is another.
And more.

I fed raw (prey model raw) so to be honest haven't researched this issue. I can tell you I see a (human) nutritionist and she has nothing good to say about carrageenan for humans. She also hates GMO.

I've found a few without carrageenan (Weruva, Blue Buffalo Turkey/Chicken in gravy, Nutro Natural Choice) but they all contain some kind of gum.     The only ones I can see that don't have both ingredients added are Natures Variety (though it has Montmorillonite Clay which may be a concern) and Tiki Cat Koolina Luau.
